Axial SCX24 Deadbolt Rock Crawler RTR - Red

The Axial® SCX24™ Deadbolt™ brings the thrill of RC rock crawling to a smaller scale, making it the perfect companion for both indoor and outdoor adventures. At less than 8 inches in length, this 1/24 scale off-roader is designed to fit in your backpack and can be taken almost anywhere. Whether you're heading to the trails, the campsite, or just having fun at home, the SCX24 Deadbolt is built to deliver reliable performance and impressive scale realism.

Inspired by the larger SCX10™ series, the SCX24 retains key features that make it a capable crawler, including a steel C-channel frame and sturdy axles. Its compact size doesn’t limit its capability; this little rig can handle rough terrains such as rocky paths, desert landscapes, and mountainous trails, thanks to its well-thought-out suspension system and full-time 4WD drivetrain. The combination of a rugged chassis, realistic details, and easy-to-use controls makes the SCX24 Deadbolt ideal for beginners and seasoned RC enthusiasts alike.

Small Scale, Big Features

The SCX24 Deadbolt may be small, but it packs a punch in terms of performance. Its steel C-channel frame rails provide durability, while the three-link front and four-link rear suspension systems ensure smooth handling and control over rough terrain. Axial has also designed the vehicle to include a worm gear drive setup, which offers high ground clearance and minimizes torque twist.

The Deadbolt is powered by a 180-size brushed motor paired with a 2S 7.4V LiPo battery, providing plenty of power to climb over obstacles and navigate tricky paths. The ready-to-run (RTR) package comes pre-assembled and includes everything you need, from the motor and radio system to the transmitter batteries — making it simple for anyone to pick up and start driving.

Iconic Deadbolt Body

The Deadbolt body gives the SCX24 a distinctive and recognizable look. With its narrow stance, bulging hood, and molded roll cage, it embodies the rugged design of classic rock crawlers. Scale details, such as the realistic driver figure and LED-equipped light bar, add to its visual appeal. The body is available in two colors: olive green and red, letting you choose the style that suits you best.

High-Performance Components

Despite its small size, the SCX24 Deadbolt incorporates robust components found in larger Axial models. The steel front and rear axles, along with the plastic suspension links, provide durability for long-lasting use. Splined and sleeved driveshafts allow for maximum suspension travel, ensuring power gets to the wheels even when the terrain gets tough. The truck rides on officially licensed KMC XD229 Machete Crawl wheels and Nitto Trail Grappler M/T tires, providing excellent grip on a variety of surfaces.
